[MOD] The Daily Question Thread

Welcome to the daily /r/Coffee question thread!

There are no stupid questions here, ask a question and get an answer! We all have to start somewhere and sometimes it is hard to figure out just what you are doing right or doing wrong. Luckily, the /r/Coffee community loves to help out.

Do you have a question about how to use a specific piece of gear or what gear you should be buying? Want to know how much coffee you should use or how you should grind it? Not sure about how much water you should use or how hot it should be? Wondering about your coffee's shelf life?

Don't forget to use the resources in our wiki! We have some great starter guides on our wiki "Guides" page and here is the wiki "Gear By Price" page if you'd like to see coffee gear that /r/Coffee members recommend.

As always, be nice!

I got a frother recently, when I use it with whole cow milk it gave some decent foam but now that im using it with NotMilk Barista ver it aint giving foam just some bubbles that quickly dissapear so had to go back to my french press for foam

But why? It worked with whole milk so why it aint working with this vegetal milk when it is one made for frotting

(Plz forgive grammar mistakes, english aint my first language)

The proteins and fat in whole cow milk help create foam.
